Test integrity features

Each candidate receives a different set of questions, with question order and answer options shuffled. The browser shows one question at a time, and candidates cannot go back. Timing runs on the server; reloading restores the same question with only the time left. Question text cannot be copied or selected, and blocked copy attempts appear in the timeline. Invitation links are personal and expire, and a finished test cannot be taken again. HireValid records signals such as time away from the test tab, pastes into answers and answers faster than a question can be read. The Integrity Score and evidence timeline are for employer review and do not decide on their own. With candidate consent, employers can add webcam photos at random moments.

Use the score as evidence

Review the score alongside a work sample and a structured interview, not by itself. For a paid social specialist, the work sample could ask the candidate to explain a change to a campaign based on a results table. Discuss the evidence in context; do not treat a score as a hiring decision. See our pre-employment testing guide and Marketing Coordinator role page for related hiring context.

Questions are set in businesses of many kinds and sizes, with names from many backgrounds and no seasonal sales tied to one country's calendar. Amounts are plain numbers in the account currency with no currency symbols, the numbers are kept round, and a calculator and scratch paper are open to every candidate. Questions ask about lasting campaign principles rather than menu paths or screen layouts that change between product updates.
